Dear Katherine,
Thank you so much for the amazing performance in Moscow. At times the sand in the hourglass seemed to stop running as music time intervened to halt real time! That was sheer magic!
Could you please comment on the quartet's name a bit? Does Curtain wall in the name refer to a castle wall between towers or a wall that carries no weight but its own?
Thanks again,
Cheers,
Yuri

i am so glad you heard the concert! it was so amazing to be in moscow. i have several ways of understanding the name Diamond Curtain Wall, and i think that both of your interpretations are beautiful. how did you come up with the castle wall between towers image?
